Today I made a trip to Elstree, not to star in a movie at the famous film studios but to collect my camera from the Canon service centre where it was repaired and serviced after a semi-submerging in sea water at Shellness last week. Canon got my camera repaired and cleaned up in just one [...]

High Tide Wader Roost at Shellness | British Birding
August 30th, 2020 Nick One of the most spectacular things in bird watching is seeing large numbers of birds together in the same place. When I am in UK there is one obvious place for me to head to in order to get a taste of this type of experience; the high tide roost at Shellness in North Kent. [...]
Chelmarsh Reservoir | British Birding
August 20th, 2020 Nick Recently I enjoyed spending some time in the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, a lovely area indeed with some nice birds in areas of ancient woodland and a few upland species on areas of heath.

Birding by the Beach at Pranburi | Thailand Birding

While it is always nice to go to well-known birding locations where certain key species are know to be found, I also enjoy going to relatively unknown sites and seeing what can be found. In this [...]

A Morning at Lat Krabang Rice Fields | Thailand Birding
May 25th, 2020 Nick What do you do when you have been stuck at home for ages due to covid-19 restrictions when some inter-provincial travel is still restricted?

Eurasian Oystercatchers | Bird Behaviour
May 11th, 2020 Nick Which birds excite you the most? For many people rarity is a key factor in which birds they enjoy seeing. Of course we all like seeing rare birds but are they really the ones that mean the most to you? Are they the birds that you enjoy watching again and again or are their other [...]
